We stopped by Zona & Co. Grille, located on Hawley Street, as the outdoor patio was a hotspot this afternoon.

"This is the first time we've eaten outside this year and it's a little windy but we're enjoying ourselves," said a Binghamton University student.

Others were in disbelief by the sunny weather.

"I'm just glad it's not snowing anymore and that we're all able to come out. It's a beautiful day. I came out with a jacket today expecting it to still be freezing. I didn't believe it," said another BU student.
